Publisher's Note
Michael Lewis reveals how much the Internet boom has encouraged great changes in the way we live, work, and think. He finds that we are in the midst of one of the greatest status revolutions in the history of the world, and the Internet turns out to be a weapon in the hands of revolutionaries. Old priesthoods--lawyers, investment gurus, professionals in general--are toppling right and left. In the new order of things, the amateur, or individual, is king: fourteen-year-old children manipulate the stock market and nineteen-year-olds take down the music industry. Deep, unseen forces are undermining all forms of collectivism, from the family to the mass market: one little black box has the power to end television as we know it, and another one—also attached to the television set—may dictate significant changes in our practice of democracy. Where does it all lead? And will we like where we end up?
Industry reviews
"Though eminently readable....There is nothing the least bit new or original about these observations....NEXT feels like a series of tourist snapshots, passed off as a photographic essays--entertaining, perhaps, but thoroughly random, subjective and amateurish." New York Times - Michiko Kakutani (07/27/2001) "[F]our essays that percolate with insight...." Entertainment Weekly - Megan Harlan (07/27/2001) "Timing the market, whether in stocks or megatrends, is a chancy game. Few can hope to win at it for long. Fortunately, Lewis the observer, alert to the family-room comedies of manners that play out under the economic headlines, gets as much space in the book as Lewis the prophet. Whether they represent a new world order or the latest bout of the old insanity, the pranks he so sharply depicts will still amuse." New York Times Book Review - Walter Kim (07/29/2001) "[A]n energetic pastiche of reportage and off-the-cuff social theory....At their sharpest, his dispatches bristle with keenly knowing observations tossed off like firecrackers from a passing car." Village Voice - Julian Dibbell (07/30/2001) "[D]elightful....The format is an ideal one for Lewis's formidable reporting skills and for his light touch with social theory. Unlike countless other attempts to map the new terrain of the digital world, Lewis's insights into the new social relations made possible by the Web will actually be read by a wider audience...NEXT is worth reading purely as a field study of the oft-discussed digital divide between parents and children.... Next will have you rooting for the kids." Washington Post Book World - Steve Johnson (08/12/2001)
